In a DU discussion (name calling and pettiness) forum about Fox News, I posted a link to a poll ( http://imfoxnews.com/ )that asked if Fox leaned further to the right than left. I asked for comments (and put on my helmet) None
They apparently do not even want their subscribers to see any other view.
I was suspended from posting and my post deleted.
Just my vent for the day
In every other society, socialists proclaim their love for free speech until they gain power.....then they crush any opposing speech.
You are just watching a microcosm of that on DU.
You expect fairness or even-handedness from a leftist hate site ?
I can’t count the number of threads here on FR I’ve posted a response to, only to have the Admin Mod pull the entire thread.
At no time did I perceive the thread’s subject to be inflammatory, racist, or in any way improper.
Go figure.
That’s not your fault. Sometimes a thread has to be pulled, if it’s a dupe, or from a source not allowed, etc.
I HOPE you took a SHOWER before Returning here ...

happened to me a few years ago. they are very petty.
You gotta be aware that lately the political officers at the DUmp are facing open rebellion in its ranks that not even the forum zampolits are able to control.
Never go swimming with sharks when there is blood in the water.

BUMP for a great post in a great thread.
I’ve only had one pulled. Bad language.
I think when one is stifled for his/her opinion and measures are taken by opponents to make sure their opinion is not heard, they call it being “Dixie Chicked”.

Much more serious because it’s a Federal elected official, not a private political forum.
Now you can give your hazmat suit a good airing out.
Welcome to the all encompassing world of socialism

I think it was pulled because of its source. But it was an important subject covered by no one else, and that’s a pity.
OUTSTANDING link! Thanks very much for YOUR work/site.
